Apple Watch storage

My series 3 watch doesn’t have enough space to update even after I’ve deleted all third party apps, I have no songs, photos, or podcasts on it. How can I clear more space? It doesn’t seem to let you delete any of the apps that come on it

Apple Watch Series 3, watchOS 6

Ways to free-Up Storage

For songs, see the "Remove music from Apple Watch" section in:

Add music to Apple Watch - Apple Support

and for pictures, see the "Limit photo storage on Apple Watch section in:

Choose a photo album and manage storage on Apple Watch - Apple Support

Also, try unpairing and pairing your watch again and restoring from the backup. This deletes all temp and corrupted files and re-indexes the file system.
